Hi,

I have an Acer Aspire 6930 and I'm using the freebsd 8.0-CURRENT branch 
(the 2009-05) on amd64.

As said in the topic, I have a network card Attansic L1e Gigabit 
Ethernet which is not recognize by the GENERIC kernel and current 
age/ale drivers.

I'd like to know what is the current solution to make it works because I 
saw different solutions. I'll probably try this one : 
http://daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=2244 (patching the ale driver, 
but for now I'm waiting for the end of the download of my freebsd dvd 
cause of course I need the kernel sources to compile it).

I can give my dmesg messages but it's not obvious (cause I doing a zfs 
only installation, it is why I took the current, and my other installed 
system is a ubuntu without zfs support :/).

Cheers,

Franck
